Cardale Jones, Doran Grant and Tracy Sprinkle Named to XFL's DC Defenders 52-Man Roster

Buckeye fans now have an XFL squad to support.

Three former Ohio State teammates will be reuniting in our nation's capital as Cardale Jones, Doran Grant and Tracy Sprinkle all made the DC Defenders' 52-man roster to start the season. They're the only three Buckeyes to make an XFL roster.

Each member of the Ohio State trio has made a run at the NFL before landing on an XFL roster for the league's return season.

Jones was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft, but only saw action in one game during his rookie season before he was traded to the Chargers ahead of the 2017 season.
